Accepting her trophy at the ceremony in Los Angeles, Yeoh said: “This is not just for me.
“This is for every little girl that looks like me.
“Thank you for giving me a seat at the table.”
Ke Huy Quan
Quan, a Vietnamese-American actor who was a child star before taking a long break from acting, said he was the first Asian to win in his category.
He added: “When I stepped away from acting it was because there were so few opportunities.
“The landscape looks so different now than before.
“Thank you to everyone in this room who contributed to these changes.”

Curtis, who played the role of the tax agent in the film, said: “I’m 64 years old and this is just amazing.”
